Advice appreciated

Post by prowler »

My line manager has tried to take me down the conduct code for a failure to do vehicle checks. Formal interview took place nearly 7 weeks ago and he has only just responded with a typed-up version of the interview for me to respond. I shall of course, but surely this is not right and a further case of grievance for me.Any advice from those in the know appreciated.

How does he know you didn't do the checks and were there any faults?

Also depending on the situation,isn't a clip round the ear sufficient,why do these screws want to make more work for themselves.
Not sure also whether the 7 week gap could be a get out clause for you,anyone?

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

They put a clip on plastic card inside the bonnet ad you need to hand it back in to the manager to make sure your checking oil levels,,, Thats how they do checks in our DO
